Thanks Kent. Joel

Bonjour Alexandre, The 16 / 32A adaptor is just for convenience (and strictly not legal in most places) to allow you to connect to a 32A socket if a 16A is not available. You should not draw more than

Hi Joel, On Kristy, there was no breaker for that pump. I installed one as per installation instructions from Climma on the existing 220 panel in the galley (an unused breaker) Kent SM243

Good afternoon Alan, Thanks very much for your reply. Just to make sure, even thought it says 16 amp on the plug, it is ok to connect them to a 32 amp connection and obtain up to 32 amp from

Hi Alexandre, Apart from the 4 pin red plugs, we have the same set of plugs and cables plus a few more for South Pacific connections. The 16A and 32A plugs are different sizes. The boat system is 16A,

On the Super Maramu,. Hull # 400+, what/where is the protection/circuit breaker for the salt/raw water pump for the air conditioners? I think this was discussed but my search came up with nothing.

Hi Joel, Wow, that was a fast and accurate feedback! Will follow your advice; thank you very much! Martin Von meinem iPad gesendet Am 17.08.2016 um 21:19 schrieb 'Joel Potter' jfpottercys@...

Hello Martin. The red on your Amel 54 is, unless it has been modified/painted, gel coat. Red is second only to black for its tendency to heavily oxidize when exposed to the sun. It can be compounded

Hi friends, My AMEL 54 dates from 2010. The red line on the top edge of the hull became matt over the years. Any ideas how to make it nice and shiny again? Polish? But it is obviouslly no gelcoat.

Thanks for the reply Mike, Do you know if the 110-220 Volt transformer is for sure an 'isolation transformer? Sincerely Alexandre --------------------------------------------

The otherday we change our old Autohelm type 300 course computer to a Raymarine S3G, still keeping the old Autohelm ST 7000 control unit. It all started very well it kept the course very straight and

Good morning, Please bear with me as electricity is my weak point… i thought it would be easier to post the questions and pictures. http://www.nikimat.com/shore_power_plug_questions_1.html If you

Hi, My understanding is that if an 'isolation transformer' at the first point of entry to the boat then a galvanic isolator us not required as there is no potentional earth return circuit between the

Hello Kent, Hum, ok. Well, would love to hear back from Olivier or Joel on that… Thanks again, sincerely, Alexandre --------------------------------------------

Hello Franscisco, What a terrible story… I would have been petrified… Just as I was reading your previous post, I wanted to say I would have preferred changing the cable until the 230 volt box

Hi again Alex.I've been told that the 110-220V transformer is an isolated transformer and thus doesn't need to be protected by a galvanic isolator.  Maybe someone can expound on that theory.  If

Hello Alexandre, According to the electrician, the cable failed due to old age in the marine environment. I had previously noticed the cable got warm when under load. On this particularly hot day

Good morning Francisco, Did you determine the cause of the failure? Was too much load on the wire? Was it old? Sincerely, Alexandre --------------------------------------------

With regard to the 32A limitation on Super Maramu, and having had the original Amel black wire catch of fire quite spectacularly in 2013 (fortunately at a point about 2 metres away from the hull)

Good morning Kent, Our vessel are similar. And if you look at all the pictures I posted, especially Part 2, you will see I trace the wires to the automatic switch above the genset as this is where
